Phenomenal, wow, I'm so impressed the texture, the colour...do tell Manuela, how do you do it? I've never seen anything so clear through glass...special filter? do you use cloning stamp? are you just brilliant? ;)

@Lorraine: Thank you so much Lorraine ;)
Well, first a clean glass helps, then I just basically shoot as near as possible to the glass as I can and straight forward (not from the side, there will be too many reflections). Do watch out that no-one goes by behind you with vivid coloured jackets...
Also I prefer to use my small camera Olympus C730 for this kind of shots (not my Canon 400D). Add a little luck... voilà!
Thank you so much for your interest and enjoy your weekend ;)
